Franchise consultants · Digital marketing
Run one plan for two audiences, with each channel given a clear job.
Digital marketing for a franchise consultant joins search, content, social, email and chat into one plan that serves brand owners and investors without mixing them. GullySales works on which channel does which job and how each is read against your enquiry record.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What digital marketing means
Digital marketing is the combined work of search, social media, advertising and website channels running together rather than as separate projects with separate people. GullySales runs these as one connected system so a change in one channel, such as a new offer, is reflected everywhere at once.

For franchise consultants
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Channels pull different audiences”
Search brings the founder with a question. Expos and referrals bring the investor. Social posts keep both in view between meetings. A plan that gives each channel one job is easier to judge than one that asks all of them for everything.
“Spend follows the engagement you want”
A consultant who earns from building models should put the budget behind founder searches. One who earns from introductions should invest in investor trust first. Pick, then build; spreading evenly serves neither.
“Proof is thin, so honesty has to carry”
Earnings cannot be published and the best clients may stay unnamed. What remains is clear explanation, a visible method and approved model descriptions. Those become the proof you show.
“Measurement stops at the enquiry”
Counting enquiries tells little if none become advisories. Read each audience from enquiry to signed work, and rewrite the route that brings talk without signatures before spending more on it.
What we do
What we deliver for franchise consultants.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A channel plan
A one-page plan stating the audience, job and measure for each channel.
Result: Each channel has a written job and a measure.
A founder search campaign
Search ads and a landing page for the question how to franchise my business.
Result: The campaign leads to a readiness conversation, not a brochure.
An investor email series
A short series on what to read and ask before signing, with no returns promised.
Result: Each email ends with a document to request.
An event and referral layer
Expo cards and an introduction note for lawyers and accountants.
Result: Every contact enters the record with a source.
A baseline and tally
Enquiries by audience and source recorded before work starts and read against later ones.
Result: You can read signed advisories by audience.
How the result is measured
- Enquiries across channels
- Cost per enquiry overall
- Channel mix by contribution
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

Measure as one campaign
Results from every channel are combined into a single report against the original objective.
Where this fits
Three pieces of sales work, in this order.
This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 0, foundation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.
Step 1
Sales audit
Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.
Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.
Step 2 · you are here
Sales process design
One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.
Start here if every salesperson sells differently.
Step 3
Sales management
A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.
Start here if the team has targets and no routine.
